I don't know if I could post this any later then now... but here it is.

A lot of things happened or didn't happen at this year's rally. Me coming down with what ever that hell that was on Saturday and not being with you good people for the ride. The rain! Awesome food, great sponsorship and even better company for 3 days.

One thing that happened just days after the rally was myself (Leonard here) being t-boned while on my 2-month old BV 350. Fortunately, nothing was broken, on me that is. This led to me being disconnected for a bit, and found it difficult to get back in the swing of posting, organizing and even being around scoots. It's not really been my year to be on 2-wheels! My BV is being rebuilt, now in Indiana, and my leg is getting stronger. Maybe they'll be ready at the same time...

All that aside, I need to thank several people for making this year's rally work out. You people rock and it doesn't happen without you.

Rally planning only sees one fatality 5/2015Bet that got your attention! Great night of planning, tho we still need a theme..... have an idea and a reason for it? Shoot it over via the suggestions box just down the page on the right.

Have you heard? There's a rally in the works! Details to come (here's one juicy tid-bit... We're adding a second big ride!). Mark your calendar for Sept 11-13!

First I'd like to thank Andy Harmon for putting together a ride. After I created 'Ride to Glory' it occurred to me that leading a ride with such a new bike (I just picked up a BV350 the week before) may not be the best idea. I would also enjoy following someone else to give me time to figure out 'how' to ride my new scoot. Coming from a Buddy was bound to carry an adjustment. As it happens, I was right; Not only because I crashed the BV (more on that later) but because Andy put a nice simple ride together.

From Lexington Diner to Old Taylor. Aside from the storms aftermath that Woodford Co is trying to dig out of this was a great ride. Great weather and a couple of good burgers made it a day to remember. Quick thanks to Karen Diggs and Christine Rupp for coming out for a bit.

Next I'd like to thank Jack Roberts and Rod Rupp. When I went down, these two sprung to my aid (no fault to Andy as he was leading so he didn't realize for a moment and made his way back once he did). I was down a small hill from the road headed head first toward a nice gravel driveway. Lucky for me those trees were in the way! To be honest it happened so quick I don't know if I flipped/rolled/or just slid. What I do know is that gear and some form of luck kept it from being much worse. All in all, my '100 miles on it' BV and I were fine, save for some fresh character.

Last I'd like to thank Emily, my wife. Mostly for keeping her distance once she saw the bike. Weeks of obsessing the purchasing decision, a full day of me gone to Nashville (thanks for the grub company, Mitch), and a bunch of money that's really for something else and she keep control of herself when what she wanted to do was smack me.- Leonard III
